Mahanaim FC has announced the successful completion of a historic twin transfer of its players to the 5-time Bosnia Premier League champions, FK Sarajevo.
Versatile 18-year-old Nigerian midfielder Marcus Haruna, alongside Ivorian midfield sensation Yahi Guy Mohammed, 18, made the direct switch at the insistence of the Bosnian club.
Twin Transfer DURATION
Meanwhile, the players have signed 3-year contracts and are expected to help FK Sarajevo achieve their objectives in the Bosnian League and other competitions.
HISTORY
Historically, this marks a big turn for Mahanaim FC, being the first time the club will transfer more than one player to the same club at a time.
Also, Club CEO, Mr. Simon Alfred, describes the transfer as a sign of trust, placed in the Mahanaim FC talent structure by the football community.
“These transfer excites us as a club, having ensured that we stay true to our goals and objectives. We’re happy the boys have taken the next steps after excelling in the fundamental values passed to them. We are glad to have achieved this little piece of history with a great club like FK Sarajevo,” said Simon Alfred.
APPRECIATION
“We would like to thank FK Sarajevo for the trust and patience they displayed with us in the course of finalising these transfers. We are looking forward to a greater partnership with them, and we wish them all the best in their objectives.
“These kids (Marcus Haruna and Yahi Guy Mohammed) distinguished themselves as brilliant players on the pitch and responsible young individuals off the pitch. Everyone at the club wishes them continued success in their professional career,” Simon disclosed.
VERSATILITY
Furthermore, Marcus, a utility player, can play in the midfield, defence, or anywhere the coach wants him to operate. Similarly, Yahi, also known as ‘Doudou’ by his mates, can play as a no. 6, no. 8, or no. 10.
Additionally, it is one of Mahanaim FC’s philosophies to develop players who can play multiple positions.
